The Times was published first by the Times Publishing Company (1896-99), and then by the Boundary Creek Printing and Publishing Company (1901-1911), and its longest-serving editor was Duncan Ross (1897-1907). In April 1911, the Times was absorbed by another Greenwood-based paper, the Ledge. The Times was revived in 1983, and it continues to be published out of a small building in downtown Greenwood to this day."@en ;

For two or .three weeks past it has been understood that there was a probability of Mr. S. F. Parrish, M. 10.; manager of the B. C. mine, in Summit camp, owned by the . B. C. Chartered Co., Ltd., of Montreal, Quebec, taking charge of the Le Roi .mine, at Rossland. It ��� was; known-, .to some of Mr. Parrish's friends^tliafcinegotiations to that end, had.,been.; iiji.proifress, but publicity was not given to the fact, .until this ��yeek,, ,when,.Mn response to enquiries, Mr. 'Parrisli.admitted that he had been appointed general manager of the Le Roi min'e at; Rossland and of the Le Roi company's smelter at'Northport, Washington. '; He will leave for Rossland'next week to enter upon his .new '.duties, but will, not yet relinquish management of the B.C., Visiting this mine whenever, necessary. Whilst Mr. Parrish's removal from the,Boundary will, be very generally ���regretted his ;n.umerousi /friends will have, sincere pleasure in heartily congratulating him upon liis' accession to the management of one/of the.biggest :and: rilost important of 1 Ihe-\"mines of British Columbia, and will wish him marked success; in the direction of its aifairs. ' With Mr. A. J. McMillan as managing director and Mr. Parrish as general.manager,the excellent record the L�� Roi jnadc-lasl year under.(the able management of Mr. John H.'McKenzie, the retiring manager, should be well maintained,, if... not-J tn proved upon, to the material benefit of-i'Rbss- land particularly, and the mining in- .dustry of the prdvincejin general. Mr. Parish has had many years mining experience. He was mining in Colorado 24 years, of which 13 to 14 years were spent about .Leadville, in charge of various work and properties, among^the -more~\"impOrtant\"of these having been the mines of the Chrysolite Silver Mining Company, and of the Yak Mining, Milling and Tunnel company. About three years ago Mr. Parrish came to the Boundary to take charge of the B. C. mine. At that time the B.C^was'just commencing' to ship ore to the smetter,'and in this connection it was the pioneer of the Boundary, beiug the first shipper of ore 111 quantity. For two years it maintained a continuous output, but when the price of copper slumped heavily operations were suspended at the mine which was closed for several'month's. ,;'��� Last summer shipping, vvas resumed and** it continues ' to-day. This mine has pro duced to-date nearly 90.000 tons of <>re. of a good grade. it> : >;>|>er con1- n' ���veragiiig about live |�� ;i ���/������it. Besides continuiii:; li'.. c..>:.:.

He has also during his residence in the district reported on a number of mining properties. His departure from the district will be a distinct loss to it, but it is.some consolation to know-that the Boundary will not yet entirely lose the benefit of his valuable services. k\\>- s.,' Jinii,'y Greenwood vs. Phoenix Oreeiiwood Curlers Get The.

At the skating rink last Friday evening-, the most unique game of hockey was played. The bachelor and benedict teams who p'ayed baseball last iummcr tried their hands at hockey. Many of those who took part had never handled a hockey stick and some were strangers to skates. D. Bannerman captained the married men and W. M. Law the bachelors. The single men kad much the stronger team. They had about four experienced hockey players who had the'puck tha most of the time and s^ei^j^heni^they^felLl.ike ifr \"The score was about 6 to 1. Mr. Bannerman was goal keeper for the bentdicts and in the absence of proper support (two stout props) he endeavored to keep the puck out by lying between the flags. The bachelors took unfair advantag* by raising the pui;k over his prostrate body. Mr. Law kept up the side of the rink and when the puck did come his way it was always an off side. The game was witnessed by a number of spectators who seemed to enjoy it more than the players. This Friday nignt a team from the Fire Department will endeavor to win over the senion hockey team. A team of juniors went to Phoenix this week and were again defeated by the boys on the hill. Tt is now His. . Worship, Mayor Smailes.

In Rossland $35,000 has been expended in schools and school sites and not one dollar of this was contributed by the municipality. The government should reimburse the city for the cost of the site and alsorprovide the $2000 necessary to complete the school building. If this were done the maintenance of the schools would not be a serious matter. With the necessary number of pupils viz twenty who are likely to be available after July 1st, a high school should be\"establishedlierVand^ the'additional cost above the governrrent grant will not be a serious matter. The very best eduoational facilities should be the aim o f school trustees, city council and citizens! These can not be seeured without cost. But there is a limit and a very short one to the revenue producing powers of the municipality. It is impossible to take blood out of a stone and it is equally impossible to extract more money out of a municipality than the law will permit to be raised. If the government would start the city on a fair basis the matter could be arranged much more easily. Dave Evans-who recently leased the Humming Bird mine, the well known North fork proposition.reports that the ore shipments by sleigh to the Granby smelter, will be coonmenced about the middle, of February. Four men are engaged at development work. The ore shute in the face of the drift is now three feet wide and tlie average values are $23 per ton. WHEN OUGHT WE TO GO TO A DENTIST? Many think it unnecessary to devote particular attention to the teeth until the appearance of the mouth,is affected by damaged, decayed or broken teeth. Others give the teeth no attention till pain compels them. The stupidity and shortsightedness of either policy is evident. Everyone who thinks a moment \"on the subject knows that food cannot be masticated satisfactorily if one or more teeth are tender, inflamed, decayed, or other vise out of working- order; and if this be the case, the mouth requires immediate attention.

Tbe estimate of expenditure presented by the Board of Trustees, is a matter for the serious consideration of the ratepayers. Last year or.dinary expenses of the school over and above the amount paid by the government ���were somewhere in the neighborhood of $806, ' not a. serious matter1 If the trustees would definitely state where the ordinary expenditure ends and wheie the :xtraordinary begins, we believe that the cost this year for th-: ordinary expenses of the school will not be as large as that of last year. Salaries, fuel, janitor and incidentals aggregate $2370 and the government Manager Tonkin of the Crow's Nest Pass Coal Company has decided that company's stores arc troublesome and unprofitable and that they will be closed out or sold out as quickly as possible. There is no sentiment in the Crow's Nest Pass Coal company; neither is there in Mr. Tonkin. Business is business with them and the company's stores have to go because it is not in the interests of the coal company to run them. The announcement must be gratify ing to the people of Fernie.

The coal is a high grade bituniidous, aud with the exception of the Crow's ��� Nest Pass coal ileitis, the only coal yei , found in southern British Columbia adaptable to coking. The basin has not been prospected to any great extent, though last summer a three foot seam was opened up on one of the claims controlled by the British Columbia Coal company.-- A:high!y impori- ..ant factor in connection with this coal basin is its close proximity to the three big smelting plants in the Boundary .\"district.

Y- & E. over the Clement property, both for the smelter spur and for the Phoenix line has .been settled by an amicable agreement with which both parties express themselves as satisfied. The chief difficulty throughout has been that the landowners refused 'to \"deal'with'the, railway for the smelter spur without first getting- full information and dealing at the same time for the Phoenix branch,'both these lines crossing their property, the junction of the rights-of-way'; hi fact, being partly on the land inwhich they are interested. This seems a very natural position for them to to take, but the railway has not been in a position till quite recently to treat for the Phoenix right-of way at this point, and for that reason the company made no offer for tho whole right-of-way till Thursday evening, the 29th inst. Negotiations on Thursday evening resulted in,a bargain being struck early Friday morning.��� Gazette. Mining Stocks. Lower Levels Must Be Proved Be- i i fore Prices will Recover. British Columbia mining stocks at home and abroad continue to show but little, if any, signs of improvement. The- annual or ^special, meetings of several ..important' properties which have been recehtly held, and the announcements made to the public there at, do not appear to have favorably affected the market ;in any single instance. Cariboo-Camp McKinney is doing well as its recently announced dividend shows. The position of the Yhiir is >\\ell known and whatever the lower workings may disclose in time a large amount of ore i.s insight in the upper, workings. The;!. Rambler-Cariboo recently announced that the condition- of the property warranted a large expenditure on additional plant. : The report sent iu by manager Makenzie, THE-NEW= Remodelled, Renovated and Refurnished.

S% B. munroe gopper Street. of tlie Le Roi, showed a splendid Jiet profit for the preceding seven months, and Mr. Kirby's latest report on the Centre Star claimed a large amount of ore in sight and 1.he positive statement that a process had been found to con- con trate the low grade ore on a commercial basis. The War Eagle report is expected this month, when the public will be informed of the result attained in ihe lower wo: kings, which have been steadily developed during the past year. In spite of these and other favorable official\"statements which have recently been made, it is somewhat difficult to understand why the stock market prices should remain dull and inactive. J. H. Curie in his review of American mines from an English stanppoint claims that the most disappointing feature of British Columbia mines is the fact that they have only proved fairly remunerative at shallow depths and that among the best known properties in the Kootenays including the Ymir, Le Roi, Centre Star, War Eagle and others, the lower workings have so far proved decidedly disappointing. This cannot be said of the Granby and the B. C. Copper, Co.'s properties, and in the case of theie mines the problem of quarrying\" ou*- low- grade ore and treating it on a.commercial basis has apparently been solved.

Macpherson, the liberal candidate, held the seat for Burrard for, the liberal party in th_ bye-elections today, necessitated by the lamented death of George R. Maxwell. The majority from Vancouver city and four rural polling stations is 76, and this will probably be increased to 125 or 150 when all returns are in. The election in the city, which contains fully four-fifths of the total vote, was the closest that has i��ver been recorded the whole secret of Foley's strong running, being the intensity of feeling in this western province as to the. necessity of drastic measures for the prohibition of Asiatic immigration, which Foley made his one and only plank. It was on this that the labor vote \"went solid\", even against the liberal candidate; and unless the liberal government adopt stringent restriction measures it is a foregone, conclusion that a conservative-labor candidate will stand the best of all chances of success when the general elections come around. Macpherson is a vigorous young man, and is pledged to do' his utmost to advanoe Asiatic immigration restrictions. The future of the liberal party in this constituency, for a decade at the least, rests upon his success in this regard.
